First game with them next week.  And still one unit of infantry sitting on the desk waiting to be painted.

Nice work, Derek. I like a man who doesn't flood the table with tanks. Give the infantry their day, I say. Well done! :-bd

The flood of tanks will come later.   :D 

But the first thing I paint for any force is a strong core of infantry.

I really like it, though I play more Battlegroup Panzergrenadier, largely because that's what my friends mostly play.

It has to be said that it's not to eveyone's taste.  You don't have quite the same level of control over your troops that you do in most rules.  Some people can't cope with it.  

There's a good introductory article at http://toofatlardies.co.uk/blog/?p=672
